Publisher's summary

Sometimes, the heart wants what it can't have. That's the motto Silas Mackenzie, the president of the Dixie Wardens MC, has lived by since he was a young man. Now, he's well on the way to middle age, has three grown children, and he's lusting after a woman from whom he should definitely stay away. Especially one who his ex-girlfriend had given birth to and happened to be only 27 years old.

Sawyer isn't a young girl at heart, though. She's seen the inside of a jail cell for eight long years, and every one of them she spent paying for a crime she didn't commit. Silas Mackenzie knows as soon as he sees her the girl has sacrificed enough. And maybe...just maybe...so has Silas.

It's time for Silas Mackenzie to get what he deserves and put a little bit of happy back into Sawyer's world, one rough, bearded kiss at a time.

Contains mature themes.

A good one

Silas was such a presence in other books. I am happy to have his book now and that he found his lady, Sawyer. I loved it all, just wish the ending wasn’t so rushed. It was a good ending, just did not want it to end. I love reading books while listening to the audible. This one was great and the narrators were perfection. It’s going to be one I listen to frequently.

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!

Honestly, I haven't been a big fan of this LLV series, but because the books are connected I wanted to read them all. I almost quit after the last book, but this one?? Omg! I loved it!!!!

Sylus is the president of the Dixie Wardens so he has been mentioned quite a bit in other books. I normally hate big age gaps but decided to give it a go anyway and I'm so glad I did! Hands down the best book of the series.

I think the main reason is because of Sawyer. She was likeable, smart, mature, not a virgin (finally), and didn't turn into 12 year old like so many of the other females in this series.

I actually felt their connection, the bad guy scenario was played out perfectly, and many back stories were explained. Perfect!!

5 Alpha Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Silas FRIGGIN' Mackenzie! This Man is the Ultimate Alpha! Elizabeth @ Carolina Chic's Read

Silas and Sawyer are like two beacons drawn to each other and I love every single minute of it. Not only does is he super protective of her. He is a man set to clear her name and her past. She is just plain falling hard for him. It is so fun to listen to their story!

5 Alpha Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My FAVORITE

I loved this book out of the series the best. Finally got the story on quite a bit of the whole group and Silas’ family. The mix of people from the other series was interspersed. The connections were great. Your narrators are awesome, some of the best I’ve ever enjoyed!

Love this book

I love all of Lani’s books but this is my favorite one of all. The narration is excellent and I will listen to it many times I’m sure.

Probably my favorite of all the LLV books

I love Silas! He is my favorite character that LLV has created. Sawyer is great too. This story just keeps me hooked and keeps me wanting more!! Love it!

Narrators both did great jobs. I felt like I was listening to sawyer and Silas and not Lydia and Mason. That’s the work of truly great narrators!

Silas

I have to admit. I do like this book, but it isn't my favorite. I feel like there should be more of a connection between Silas and Sawyer.

Great series

Still loving this series. Each book has its own story, can be read by itself or out of order without any problems. No cliffhangers.

I do really wish there was more variety of narrators though. I don’t dislike the narrators, but after reading many books in the series, it would add something to it to have some variation.

Worth the read or listen though!
